Centrifugal Force or centripetal force is one of the inertial forces that arises during the motion of a point mass or object along a curved path, acting perpendicular to the direction of motion (tangent to the trajectory) and away from the center of rotation.
$$F_c = m \cdot \frac{{v^2}}{r}$$
where,
Fc— centrifugal force (N);
m— mass (kg);
v— velocity (m/s);
r— radius (m).
Centrifugal Force FAQ
What is centrifugal force?
It is the apparent outward force on a body moving in a curved path.
What is the formula?
Fc = m·v²/r.
